We’re looking at ways to enjoy the cool months of winter in climates that are not warm all year round…and I found another today, Saunas! What a wonderful way to warm yourself, whether inside or out.
Not only does this sound inviting, but there are health benefits…your skin is the largest organ on the body, and time in a Sauna, if your health care provider approves, is a perfect way to cleanse the pours, and flush out toxins. I was looking at a site with beautiful infrared saunas with many designs for both indoor and outdoor use. At the site that the “live link” above will lead you to, you will find a list of health benefits provided by using a Sauna, including pain relief (my aching muscles and joints like the sound of that), detoxification, and other benefits.
You can enjoy the outdoors in the winter in a snow-resistant outdoor Sauna…imagine enjoying the warmth of a Sauna in your yard, once green and colorful with flowers, now white with snow…the contrast of the cold and warmth of a Sauna is appealing to many. Prices are quite good, quantities are limited on some designs so visit soon, and the shipping appears to be free, at this particular site, so it may be a good time to take a look.
The opportunity to tell you about this is exciting to me, because we love patriotic music, AND because my hubby just got a brand new player.
If you are looking for music to play at your weekend barbecue or garden party, or to enjoy yourself any time from now on, on Friday, July 3rd, in just a few days, you can download an album of 30 songs for just $1.99. The album is called A Salute To America, and usually goes for close to $10, so $1.99 is a wonderful deal. This is the Amazon MP3 “Deal of the Day”…and now that I’m seeing this for the first time, I’m wondering what deals they have other days of the week. As a matter of fact, I just visited the link, and I believe it said it was $1.89 now for the album, so you may want to see if you can get it right away if you’re interested…I’m going to check again and see if I’m right about that amount as soon as I finish typing this, and then will call my husband so he can download it for us.
We have quite a number of people who set off fireworks around our lake on the 4th of July, and we like to sit out on the deck in the evening and look over the lake and watch. This would be a good time to listen to music like this and take a few moments to reflect on our Nation, and what makes it great…the words of these great songs will inspire you. No matter what challenges may come along the way, we are a blessed Nation, and have much to be thankful for. I thank God for those who made it possible for us to even have such a day as Independence Day to celebrate!
This year we were not able to do a lot of outdoor entertaining in our yard as we prepared for, and then had, a major excavation project done. We are happy that we didn’t lose our deck in the process, which was a possibility. Since our home is small for entertaining a large group of people, the deck is a great extension to our living space.
Right now our outdoor furniture consists of those stack-able chairs, they are comfortable, but not nearly as attractive as some of the wicker furniture, and other outdoor furniture that I have seen at a site simply called buyoutdoorfurniture.com - easy to remember, and a site that is a lot of fun to browse through because of it’s extensive selection.
I have visions of garden parties, and am a little envious of our friends in the south and other year-round warm climates who can have outdoor parties any time they wish. We do have a family celebration that will be here at our home in early October, and are looking forward to that, hoping that it will be not only somewhat warm, but there will be a bit of color in the trees that make up the view that surrounds us.
In the meantime, I’m happy to have the links saved in this post for later when I have a little more time to shop for patio furniture for our deck because their prices were so good, and the shipping is free at least until the end of the year.
